The end of the world as we know it ...

Here's a depressing thought. If Kurt Klaus was a Mayan, I would feel confident that the prediction for today would have been correct at 11:11 GMT. At 11:12 GMT today, we'd all be enjoying the afterlife.

Is it possible that the Mayans did not have a Kurt Klaus so the Mayan calendar could be out by a day or two? An understandable error.

Drink the good wine today. Don't put off that watch purchase. Life is for living.

Cucumber news, that's we call this kind of Maya calendar topic in the Netherlands. Cucumber news usually appears near the summer holiday, when everybody seems to go away, like politicians, us mortals, thieves and even reporters. Then the non-news replaces the news.

That the Mayas had to end their calendar at some point is understandable. To think that it means that the world will meet its maker at that moment is just beyond me. So cheerfully I wear my Vintage Collection Pilot's watch at the moment, at my last working day of this year. Tomorrow the non-news is insignificant old news, and I will go on thinking about the new black dial Ingenieur Automatic.

Kind regards,Paul
